Abstract

The relatively new concepts of agents and multi-agent systems have emerged as a promising approach to simplify the intricacies of developing huge and complex software applications. However, methodologies for effectively applying agent technology in such complex applications are still under development. Most of the well-documented specifications wander around the two same underlying research directions: Reuse and extend UML or develop a new methodology from scratch. This paper strives to facilitate the developers and researchers, interested in multi-agent systems, to make an effort for designing effective intelligent agent systems by using the semantics of Agent Class Diagrams, proposed in this paper as an extended version of AUML Class Diagrams.
